SUPER SPROUTS

Four & Five Year Olds

Campers have not yet attended Kindergarten

Week 1: June 10-14 “Mini-Beasts”

Ants, slugs, earthworms and pillbugs are captivating

creatures; and although small, they are an essential

part of their habitat. Let’s look under rocks and logs

as we discover the wonderful world of the

Arboretum’s tiniest residents.

FRIDAY FUN: MINI BEAST PARADE

Week 2: June 17-21 “Flower Friends”

Bees, butterflies and hummingbirds, oh my!! These

are just a few of the flower’s friends, and like all

friends, they need one another. This week campers

will dive into the world of flowers and learn what

makes these beauties of the plant world so attractive

to us and so many animals!

FRIDAY FUN: ARBORETUM FLOWER SHOW

Week 3: June 24-28 “Dynamic Dynos!”

Did you know that

the first nearly

complete skeleton of

a dinosaur was found

here in New Jersey?

Campers will learn

about the

Haddonfield Hadrosaurus and other incredible

inhabitants of the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous

periods. FRIDAY FUN: DINO DIG

Week 4: July 8-12 “Lenape Life”

The Lenape, the original inhabitants of our area, had

a very close relationship

with the natural world,

and this week campers

will get a small glimpse

into their way of life.

Campers will try their

hand at a few Native

American games, plant a

Three Sister’s garden,

create crafts using natural

materials and learn some

of the lore that is passed

down through time.

FRIDAY FUN: LENAPE FOLKTALE THEATRE

Week 6: July 22-26 “Skull and Bones”

Was an animal predator or prey? Was it a carnivore,

herbivore or omnivore? Did it have any “super

senses?” Skulls enable us to answer these and so

many other questions! Skull sleuths in this week’s

camp will discover how to “read” animal skulls and

will also investigate other clues that creatures leave

behind, like scat, tracks and owl pellets.

FRIDAY FUN: RRA NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM

Week 8: August 5-9 “Dirt Detectives”

Did you know that it can take 500 years for one inch

of dirt to form? The ground beneath our feet is our

ultimate natural resource. Soil nourishes all forms of

life and is also full of life! Through experiments,

games and activities campers will “dig” the

connection between the Earth’s “skin” and all

living things.

FRIDAY FUN: SECRETS OF THE SOIL TRAIL WALK

Week 5: July 15-19 “Secrets of the Night”

What happens at the Arboretum when the sun goes

down? The animals aren’t telling!! Campers will

search the grounds for evidence that animals leave

behind and like detectives, piece together events of

a typical night at the Arboretum. Campers will

immerse themselves in the world of nocturnal

animals and through games and activities learn

about their mysterious ways.

FRIDAY FUN: A NIGHT AT THE ARBORETUM

Week 7: July 29-August 2 “Weather Watchers”

So many of our activities

depend upon the weather

and this year’s weather has

been unbelievable! During

this week campers will

become amateur

meteorologists and learn to

understand and predict the

forces that determine our weather. Campers will

make clouds, rain, tornadoes and even lightning! It

will be a wild weather week at RRA!

FRIDAY FUN: RRA WEATHER CHANNEL

Capture the magic of nature at this special day camp!

Each day campers will explore the gardens and trails

at the Arboretum, participate in exciting games and

activities, and create unique crafts. New for this year:

• Longer hours for our Super Sprouts camp.

Morning sessions will be from 9:00am to

12:00pm; afternoon sessions will be from 12:30 to

3:30pm.

• Introducing Friday Fun! Beginning this summer we

invite parents and caregivers to join our campers

for a half hour of interactive fun on the last day of

camp each week. A wonderful way for your child

to share what they have learned over the week!

Special guest musicians Rose & the

Nightingale will assist our campers in

preparing for a special Friday Fun show! The

highlighted camps will feature these talented

musicians!
